If I were stupidly rich, something I'd love to do is find antique stalls with big collections like this, and find a collector who wants it, but money is what's stopping them. Take the pieces you don't have, take it all, but happy birthday to you whenever that is, because it's on me.

Then poof--I am gone. Well, after buying all three staplers for myself.

Streetsboro Flea Market

A disturbingly large number of Raggedy Anns and Andys (Under the Goldfish Booth)

Old office gear (Dave’s furniture booth)

August 17th is the Chesterland Historical Society’s flea market. Cindy will be there!

#crab prattle #there would be signs #raggedy ann #but collecting in general #because FUCK would i love to do this for myself #whenever i see vintage barbie playsets or anything strawberry shortcake or rainbow brite #and it weighs on my heart to take only one or two pieces from someone's obvious collection #(this is how i ended up with someone's miniature rollerskate collection from the bins)#(i only spied the ultra-realistic keychain and shaped german eraser)#(but there were only seven total pieces and what were the rest going to do?)
